Structural and Dynamic Origins of Payne Effect Reduction by Steric Stabilization in Silica Reinforced Poly(butadiene) Nanocomposites

James Michael Hart, W. Douglas Carswell, Victoria García Sakai, Bernhard Frick et autres

ABSTRACT Silica nanoparticles in polybutadiene nanocomposites cause significantly hindered polymer dynamics in the form of a glassy layer, which can extend more than 10 nm from the nanoparticle surface. We present experiments for a well‐defined series of these nanocomposites to contrast the …

Reinforcement of GO composites using rigid and flexible crosslinkers

Leon Bowen, Lian R. Hutchings, Mujeeb Ullah Chaudhry, Thomas A. M. Pugh et autres

Crosslinkers are important for graphene oxide (GO) plates in filtration applications because they help to define and maintain the integrity of the nanoscale structure. GO platelets were dispersed in aqueous solution and crosslinked using a simple “one-pot” process in which multi-amine functional …

Temperature Gradient Interaction Chromatography: A Perspective

Lian R. Hutchings, Antonella Pagliarulo

Abstract The application of temperature gradient interaction chromatography (TGIC) as an advanced technique for the characterisation of polymers is discussed, in comparison to other liquid chromatography techniques and in particular the ubiquitous size exclusion chromatography. Specifically, the use of reversed-phase TGIC for …

Tales of the unexpected. The non-random statistical copolymerisation of myrcene and styrene in the presence of a polar modifier

Lloyd A. Shaw, Lian R. Hutchings

Terpene monomers such as myrcene are considered sustainable replacements for oil-based dienes in the production of sSBR. We present unexpected data for the anionic copolymerisation of myrcene and styrene in the presence of TMEDA, a polar modifier.

Towards bio-based tapered block copolymers: the behaviour of myrcene in the statistical anionic copolymerisation

Eduard Grune, Jennifer Bareuther, Jan Blankenburg, Michael Appold et autres

The monoterpene myrcene is a bio-based diene monomer. The statistical, living anionic copolymerization with isoprene, styrene and 4-methylstyrene leads to gradient or tapered block copolymers, studied by in-situ NMR, SAXS and TEM.

Understanding copolymerisation kinetics for the design of functional copolymers via free radical polymerisation

Natasha A. Boulding, Jonathan M. Millican, Lian R. Hutchings

We report the free radical copolymerisation kinetics and co-monomer sequence distribution for a series of functional copolymers based on MMA.

Fire and Forget! One‐Shot Synthesis and Characterization of Block‐Like Statistical Terpolymers via Living Anionic Polymerization

Lian R. Hutchings, Paul P. Brooks, Peter L. Shaw, Paul Ross‐Gardner

ABSTRACT Diphenylethylene (DPE) is a monomer which has attracted significant interest from academia and industry both in terms of copolymerization kinetics and for the potential to extend and tune the range of glass transition temperatures accessible for DPE‐containing copolymers. DPE can undergo …

End‐Functionalized Chains via Anionic Polymerization: Can the Problems with Using Diphenylethylene Derivatives be Solved by using Bisphenol F?

Antonella Pagliarulo, Lian R. Hutchings

Abstract The controlled functionalization of polymers via anionic polymerization draws great attention not only because of the importance of introducing functionality into otherwise unfunctionalized polymers, but also because of the possibility to use the resulting macromonomers to make a variety of complex …
